Early spring preparations at Katama Air Field

Spent some really chilly time with Mike Creato, Manager of Katama Air Field yesterday. He spoke of the early days, his grandfathers management of the place in the 40's, the type of aircraft to land, what life was like when he was a kid and why he's stayed tied to the mast all these years. It was interesting to watch him "dust off the cob webs" of the tools and supplies, this being the first action of the pending 2011 season. You couldn't tell by the steam coming out our breath, but it was warm enough to change the oil on Waco 1, (The "Red Barron") one of the two that call 1B2 home.
